Leg elevation is important!
Many of us spend a lot of our time either sitting or standing. Because of this, it often feels good to kick back and
relax once in a while. It’s even possible that you can gain some health benefits from putting your feet up and elevating your lower limbs:
- Pressure Relief – Elevating your legs help prevent or ease vein conditions such as Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), Varicose veins and chronic venous insufficiency (CVI).
- Natural Flow – The natural flow of blood becomes much easier if your lower limbs are elevated.
- Reduces Inflammation – The swelling will also go down the more you elevate your legs, which will help keep your veins happy and healthy.

This is the perfect aid for helping me get into bed, in a car or in a chair

I really found this loop very useful after my full hip replacement. I used it to lift my leg to be able to get into my bed or on my sofa without having to ask my husband to do it for me.

I use mine to lift each leg into my car every day. It does show the dirt easily in yellow. Depending on use the foot holder stiffener eventually breaks up inside, but it’s still useable. I take mine to hospital appointments for X-rays etc. and everyone says it’s the most useful piece of equipment they’ve ever seen.

The leg lift strap is well thought out with a wide resin insert which provides firm yet flexible support for the large foot loop without any danger of being pierced by metal wire. The hand loop is well padded and is large enough to be gripped with both hands.

I received my **3rd** Leg Lifter today!!
I have found this quality item so convenient to have around the house. They are particularly useful if my rollator is just out of reach and I can ‘rein it in’ from where I am sitting. Also for looping around the door handle to open or close the room doors from my chair.
I can also use the Leg lifter to drag items to me that have fallen on the floor or on adjoining furniture.
Initially I tried lifting my ‘dead’ leg in the loop but the leg was too heavy — so for MS users like me it would be used on an individual basis. Very sturdy, well constructed and cheerful to look at.

Wish I’d had this for my previous job knee and hip replacements but this was a godsend for my latest replacement so easy to use also wished I had taken it into hospital too as it would have saved me calling the nurses to help me back to bed. Well made great price. Invaluable piece of kit!
